    Paul seems to be putting last nights defeat down to lack of effort. But what about tactics? They play with two No10’s. (Brighton are having a great season with this system). But in the 2nd half Plymouth switched to three No10’s. We don’t have the players to suss these things out . White for one just doesn’t have the experience.

    We have enough coaches at the games to see what is happening and make the necessary adjustments, that is part of their job and one they have failed on a few times since their arrival.

    Obviously there was nowt wrong with the starting XI in the 1st half. 1-0 up at HT and might have been more. They changed personnel and how they played 2nd half. We failed to react to that change. Not the first time that's happened. 

    The manager does seem to get outsmarted on a few occasions by some other managers. Certainly the case in the last two games.

    I really can't stand Rees-Mogg but it's hardly breaking news that the cabinet (and opposition leaders) would be treated differently in a time of national crisis. Isn't that what things like the nuclear bunkers are for?

    Presumably some would be outraged to hear that Boris (who I also can't stand, BTW) probably didn't have to wait on an A&E trolley for 6 hours like a mere mortal, when he went into hospital with Covid.

    On a positive note, neither did I, about 20 minutes as I recall. I was impressed.

  4. I didn’t think the ref was that bad last night. He was let down by one of his linesman, but if a player goes down feigning injury, there is not a lot he can do. In fact I suspect this referee will be working his way up the leagues. 
    Our play was so predictable last night it became boring to watch. Work the ball out to the wing because that is what Lincoln wanted us to do. Then put over a cross that their defence easily coped with… and repeat… and repeat. Lincoln created the better chances their manager did a great job on us. Sadly our manager was fell short again, I hope it isn’t a trend.

    Derby fans used to say that about him when he was smashing 20 goals a season for us.  With the type of player he is, there's always going to be fans that hate him - they want a player who runs about like a madman kicking things, where as Martin has always been a "don't need to run if you're already standing in the right place" type of player.

    He makes himself available for a pass unlike the current number 9, and so long as he receives the ball somewhere between his big toe and chin he will control it. He knows where his team mates are whereas the team do not know where our current No.9 is for much of the time.

    Probably not a Warne type player though - shame.

    Lol. If he gets us out of this God-forsaken league I don't care. He did it with Rotherham, lets hope we can too. What do you think fans of the 'big' clubs stuck down here would say?

    I want to see decent football with our players passing the ball to their own team not hitting a ball in hope.  His history tells us that he signs players to go up because of their style, but not to survive in the Championship.
